2112, A Farewell to Kings, Hemispheres, Permanent Waves, then Moving Pictures…… probably the greatest music ever written in a 5 year period! Honestly, just mind blowing how amazing those albums are. Long live RUSH1

"The clouds prepare for battle" the best opening line of any song in History... Every major battle in the History of Men has been decided by the Weather.. Mother Nature does what she does, and we are to only watch it in it's magnificant Glory, life and death decided by her...

I'm 66. Yes, you read that right. I remember getting "All the World's a Stage" on 8-track, when it came out. When I heard the guitar echo on "Anthem", I was hooked. For me Alex with the different sounds and chords he came up with was the reason I became a Rush fan. The different spacey chords of Jacob's Ladder is another perfect example. Alex never got enough credit for the success of this band, IMO.

This is, without question, the DEFINITIVE version of this song! such a maturity in this redemption

Progressive masterpiece of the highest order ..

Pick out a favorite RUSH song better than all the rest. I challenge you - I dare you. You cannot. My personal favorite and masterpiece of all their work that demanded that I be a devoted RUSH fan for the rest of my life was the opening intro of 2112. Every true and dedicated RUSH fan "KNOWS" exactly where they were at - and who they were with the first time they ever heard the beginning opening of 2112. I guarantee it!!! Long live RUSH! May your music forever echo into eternity!

Driving home from college years ago, there was a line of awesome thunderheads across the sky ahead. Lightning in the clouds made them glow one at a time, and I realized why they are called thunderheads: they looked like a line of huge purple, carved busts. I realized I had Permanent Waves in the car, and blasted Jacob's Ladder while I drove through the storm. It is still one of my favourite songs.

I don’t think they liked this song much, if I had to guess maybe it was because it was boring to play compared to other stuff.

I still can’t believe Neil is gone.

I will be 60 in December and have been a Rush fan since 2112. These vids show how great they were live. They never made a bad album. haha and Caress of Steel is one of my favs.

I love this version of the song... For the most part I really prefer them to follow the studio version note for note, but Neil comes out of the slow section in an odd time signature that sounds so badass, and then goes back to playing things generally note for note. So tight, really wonderful composition by all three...

Not only does it sound great, but it FEELS INCREDIBLE to play (especially when you rotate through other time signatures over it and improvise a bit in those time signatures). It is like rhythmic cocaine to drummers, why we get so excited by Peart's incredible drumpart composing. It is the highest high... your body feels like it is on a rollercoaster.

I found Rush back in 2006 when I was in high school. The recession made it too hard for me to afford concert tickets at such a young age when they played in Milwaukee. But you know what I'm 31 now and still rocking out to the most badass 3 guys from Canada 🤘🤘🤟✌️

Neil's inspiration for the lyrics came from Genesis 28; Jacob was convinced the only way to heaven was on the rays of sun. When a thunderstorm starts to dissipate, you see beams of sunlight coming through the clouds. Jacobs Ladder! So ends the lesson!!
